Detailed Synopsis

June, 1847, George Chambers offers to trade his ration of salt pork to Sgt. Daniel Bryant for blind duty. Bryant tells him, Henry Lloyd saw the Tuunbaq from the ship and Bryant admits some guilt over shooting the Shaman. John Weekes and John Morfin sew the Shaman's remains into his fur robe. Thomas Hartnell walks in and gathers the Shaman's things to give to Lady Silence and then leaves. Weekes finds ivory totems in the Shaman's robe and Henry Goodsir tells him to put them back in with the Shaman. Hartnell tells Lt. George Hodgson that he has the Shaman's personal items and then gives them to Lady Silence. She notices the totems are missing and asks for them, but Hartnell tells her, there was nothing else and offers his condolences. Charles Des Voeux is in charge of discarding the Shaman's body and Goodsir is troubled when he finds out the Shaman is going to be dropped into a fire hole in the ice.

Lady Silence leaves the ship and starts to carve out an igloo. Lt. Edward Little asks Francis Crozier if he has any experience with Eskimo holding grudges when their loved ones are wronged. Crozier tells him, he wouldn't know as he has never wronged an Eskimo and Thomas Blanky tells Little that the Eskimo are too concerned with surviving to start a war. John Franklin and the other officers of the Erebus eat a silent dinner with a plate left on the table for Lt. Graham Gore. He remembers the dinner party that was held before they left on the expedition and how Sir John Ross asked him what plans he had made in case the ships are ice locked. Later Lady Jane Franklin tells Franklin that Sir Ross is only bitter due to his failure in the ice. She then shows him Jacko, the pet monkey she got him. It flashes back and Sir Ross warns Franklin that nothing grows in the Arctic and that starving men will turn against their leaders. Cornelius Hickey sees William Gibson ask to speak with Lt. John Irving. While Franklin is writing a eulogy for Gore, Crozier visits him and asks permission to send a party out to the Hudson Bay Company outpost on Great Slave Lake so that they may be rescued. Franklin refuses the request and says he will not lose another man and tells Crozier that Crozier blames the world for his problems and tells him, he will never be fit for command.
